Summary: | In general, ZSM-5 synthesis is performed using a hydrothermal process that takes place at high temperature and high pressure (> 373 K,> 1 bar). The synthesis of ZSM-5 is influenced by the organic template used. The organic template serves as a determinant of the zeolite crystal structure formation. CTAB is an easily found organic template and the price is cheap so the production cost of ZSM-5 synthesis would be more efficient. In this research, ZSM-5 is synthesized by varying temperature and crystallization time. The result showed the optimal condition of ZSM-5 synthesis was at 363 K for the crystallization temperature with 8 hours of crystallization time. The crystalline product had 60.07% of crystallinity with an aluminosilicate composition of 72% w/w. |
